I have owned a 3 Winnies, all DP. 1999 bought used. Other than replacing a heater core it was trouble free. Nothing. Bought a 2006 Winnie Meridian and just sold it with no problems at all except replaced a fresh water pump (Shurflo). It was the best I have owned so far. Just purchased a 42QD Tour so, to early to tell. All were garaged which I believe makes a big difference. All had or have Cummins engines. Hope that helps.
Thanks, yes it does help. We want a Class A, but the horror stories keep interfering with our decision.
When you read enough of the “horer stories” on hear you will be able to separate some of the ones that are a full page rant ageist a manufacture or dealer because they had 2 light bulbs go out in a year. Or they had to replace an engine 3 times because of overheating, why would you keep driving if it were overheating? Just saying Many people can’t or don’t want to do miner things and take it to a dealer for everything. Many more take care of the miner things and don’t give it a second thought. For instance I had a slide switch go bad on me on the last trip 2 weeks ago. I had to take the switch out and jump across the terminals to get the slide out. Did I write a big rant agenst the maker or the dealer? I just called Freightliner and ordered a new switch and installed it.
You are going to have things break or quiet working in your house and the same with a motor coach.
I think if you do the basic preventative maint you will be relatively trouble free.
